Watergate or Something

Now that Carl Woodward’s name is involved with the Plame/Miller/Rove investigation, and Edwards is looking to empanel another grand jury, I guess we can figure the blowhard (Woodward in this case) will go the way of the Gray Lady’s (Jihadist Journal) Miller.

No?

Apparently, Terrorist Today (WaPo) noted in an op ed, that because editorial and op ed sections of the newspaper have no connection (Ah jeez, there goes my blood pressure. Do these mutts actually think we are so stupid as to believe this tripe?) it’s okay for Woodward to say what he wants, when he wants, and he shouldn’t have to reveal sources or providence.

Me? I’m not real sure about anything in this case, but all I know is that it MUST be bad for journalists, not because it’s making them give up sources but because there is so much media obfuscation going on. I mean, the “truth” might come out instead of the “slant.”


Never Take Sides Against the Family*

Heretofore stalwart supporter of the war in Iraq, Congressman John Murtha, a decorated ex-Marine from Pennsylvania, and more importantly, a Democrat who was considered a hawk regarding the war in Iraq, has come out saying that the troops need to be pulled now. Murtha earned the Navy Distinguished Service Medal, the fourth highest award in the Corps, so I’ll let him have his opinion.

That said … wrong, wrong, wrong.

Jesus, Murtha, did you forget what it was like to be at war and have the media telling you that everyone wants you out? That what you’re doing is wrong?

Have you forgotten that statements like yours will (not may, will) result in people who just maybe wouldn’t have pulled a trigger, pulling it because they believe the people who are supporting the troops aren’t?

Are you so far away from your time as a Marine, that you’ve forgotten the Warrior’s Code and Ethic?

Damn, man.

Never Take Sides Against the Family, Part Two

In response to Murtha, the House voted on and defeated a proposal calling for the immediate withdrawal of troops from Iraq. Democrats, never known for actually backing up anything they say, called the resolution facetious, treasonous, a slap in Murtha’s face, etc., etc., ad nauseam, et al, because – they say – the Republican majority in Congress didn’t really mean it and knew it wouldn’t pass.

Awwwww.



Islam Loves You. I Swear

Or so says mass murdering street thug boss Abu Musad al Zarqawi regarding the bombings in Jordan last week, which he says were sort of accidents and really didn’t kill any Muslims of faith. He also promised plenty more, because that’s what you get for hanging out in Western hotels.

There’s a $25 million bounty on this genocidal mutt, by the way.


The WSJ Knows Stress

The Wall Street Journal gets it in their op ed on Senator McCain and interrogation

"If Osama bin Laden is alive and looking for signs of flagging U.S. will to fight the war on terror, he need look no further than our national debate about interrogating his compatriots and others who would do us harm... [Senator] John McCain...has pushed an amendment through the Senate that would effectively bar all stressful interrogation techniques. The danger for American security is that this would telegraph to every terrorist in the world that he has absolutely nothing to fear from silence should he fall into U.S. hands."

As noted above on Murtha's stand, Senator McCain is wrong, wrong, wrong.
